At this moment, Li Shimin was with a group of subordinates, including Zhangsun Wuji, Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, Gao Shilian, Wei Zheng, Tang Jian, Duan Lun, and Lu Doukuan.
The generals were Li Jing, Qin Qiong, Cheng Yaojin, Yuchi Gong, Niu Jinda, Li Daozong, Chai Shao, Li Ji, Duan Zhixuan, etc.
Li Shimin didn't want to talk to Hou Junji, so he didn't let him participate in many things.
This fellow was just like history, arrogant and self-righteous. He thought that he was a hero of the Black Tortoise Sect and did not put anyone in his eyes.
Not long after Li Shiming had transmigrated, he had asked Li Shiming to learn the art of war from Li Jing.
Li Shiming had also checked his loyalty through the system. 63 points, damn it. Which of the other henchmen wasn't above 90 points?
This guy was obviously a traitor, so Li Shiming gave him Sun Tzu's Art of War.
He told him to concentrate on his studies and not to disturb Li Jing. Before he finished his studies, he had to put down all military affairs and make other arrangements after he finished his studies.
At that time, this guy was so happy that he couldn't find the north. He thought that Li Shimin's favor hadn't decreased and that he would be promoted in the future. His intelligence was beyond words.
Thus, Hou Junji faded from the center of power, and Li Shimin couldn't do anything to him. Becoming a hero was the only way he could do it before he made a mistake.
After Li Jing knew about this, he was very grateful to Li Shimin. Li Jing's political intelligence was not much better, so he did not care about Li Jing's actions. Anyway, time would tell.
At this moment, there was a huge map hanging on the wall of the hall. It was a map of the world. Asia, Europe, Oceania, Africa, etc., the seven continents and five oceans were clearly marked.
The current territory of the Great Tang was marked in red, and the largest territory that the dynasties of the Central Plains had ever occupied was marked in yellow.
From this map, the Great Tang's future territory was vast, with the Ob River and the Irtysh River in the west as the borders, and all the way to South Kazakhstan, Kyrgyzstan, a part of the western part of Azeroth, and the entire Caucasus region.
Li Shimin didn't care about the McMahon Line, so he continued to push it a hundred kilometers further south.
As far as the south, including the entire Nepal, Sikkim, Myanmar, and the northern part of Myanmar, the jade could only be produced in the Tang Empire.
North of Linyi in the Qin, Han and Sui dynasties, which was the south, central and north of Da Nang, was the territory of the Great Tang.
East to the Bering Strait, Japan only had four main islands, north of the Han Dynasty Dodder County, which was above Hancheng, Jizhou Island, Ryukyu Islands, and so on.
All of these would be part of the Great Tang's territory in the future, and it would be its homeland.
The Great Tang would teach him how to behave in a moment's time.
As for Oceania, Australia, new Zealand, and so on, Li Shimin would give them to his sons.
Every time Li Shiming saw this map, his teeth would ache. The population of the Great Tang was too small.
Other than Li Xiaogong who had seen this map before, this was the first time these lackeys had seen it.
When they saw this map, they were shocked. The world was so big, but the Great Tang was so small.
Li Shimin waited for them to look at it for a while before saying,"Alright, dear ministers, let's deal with other matters first."”
Zhangsun Wuji held a name list in his hand and said,"Your Majesty, this is the result of the Imperial Examination."”
Li Shimin took the list from the chamberlain. As expected, Wang Xuance was ranked first, and Zhou Shuying was ranked 283rd. Without saying anything, he circled the top three.
After he was done, he asked the chamberlain to pass it to Zhangsun Wuji." The list will be posted tomorrow. Then, arrange for them to train for three months. I wonder if the arrangements have been made properly?”
"Your Majesty, it has been arranged. After the training, he will be arranged to be a county magistrate.”
"What are the most important places?”
"If the year-end performance review of local officials does not pass, these people will take over first. If there were any extra people, they would be arranged at the border.”
Li Shimin said," Yes, you can give priority to the Jimi states.”
" This…" Zhangsun Wuji was a little confused when he heard Li Shiming's words.
When the Jimi Prefecture system was first established in the early Tang Dynasty, due to various reasons, some remote ethnic minorities adopted the Jimi policy, recognizing the local indigenous nobles, granting them the title of princes, and bringing them under the management of the court.
Of course, these chieftains were not all ethnic minorities. For example, the chieftain surnamed Yang from Guogan.
This system was similar to the autonomous regions of the later generations, but it was not exactly the same.
Firstly, they were self-governing. The court basically did not send officials. Zhangsun Wuji was confused when he suddenly asked for a county magistrate.
After all, this system had only been established for a few years. It couldn't be changed overnight, right?
Not only did Zhangsun Wuji not understand, even Fang Xuanling, Du Ruhui, and the other civil officials did not understand.
"Do you think that the Jimi Prefecture system has only been established for a few years and is about to be changed?”Li Shi Min knew that they didn't understand the situation. After all, no matter how intelligent these people were, they still had historical limitations.
